Is Bill Clinton Still Triangulating?

Written by Noah Kristula-Green on Wednesday May 25, 2011

Cameras caught Bill Clinton sharing a few words with Paul Ryan at a recent event and encouraging him to call. Is the former president up to his old political tricks?

In this video, ABC News catches Paul Ryan and Bill Clinton sharing a few words behind the scenes at a Pete Peterson Foundation event:

Clinton says he is glad the Democrats won in NY but says "I hope the Democrats don't use this as an excuse to do nothing." Ryan in turn says that he is afraid there is going to be "paralysis" over the debate but says that it's the only way "to get this thing moving." At the end, Clinton says that Ryan should "give him a call".

Is Clinton just engaging in triangulation, even out of office?
